Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 26, 2021, Icahn Enterprises
L.P. (the “Company”) entered into an open market sales agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies
LLC (the “Agent”). Pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company may issue and sell the Company’s
depositary units representing limited partner interests (the “Depositary Units”) having an aggregate offering amount
of up to $400,000,000 from time to time through the Agent. The Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts, as the agent
and subject to the terms of the Sales Agreement, to sell the Depositary Units offered. Sales of the Depositary Units, if any, may
be made in sales deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Global Select
Market. The Company may also agree to sell Depositary Units to the Agent as principal for its own account on terms agreed to by
the Company and the Agent. The Agent will be entitled to a commission from the Company of up to 2.00% of the gross sales price
per Depositary Unit sold under the Sales Agreement by the Agent acting as the Company’s agent with the exact amount to be
agreed by the Company. The Company intends to use any net proceeds from the offering to fund potential acquisitions and for general
limited partnership purposes.
The Depositary Units are registered under
the Securities Act, pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-232711), as amended,
which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 20, 2019.
The Sales Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties, and agreements of the Company and the Agent, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination
provisions. The Sales Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the description of the Sales Agreement
in this Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
The Agent has provided, and may in the future
provide, various investment banking, commercial banking, financial advisory and other services to the Company and its affiliates
for which services it has received and may in the future receive, customary fees. In the course of its business, the Agent may
actively trade the Company’s securities for its own account or for the accounts of customers, and, accordingly, the Agent
may at any time hold long or short positions in such securities.
A copy of the opinion of Proskauer Rose
LLP relating to the legality of the Depositary Units is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 1.02. Termination of Material Definitive Agreement.
In connection with entering into the Sales
Agreement, the Company and the Agent agreed to terminate the prior open market sales agreement, dated as of May 2, 2019, by and
between the Company and the Agent (the “Prior Agreement”), and no further sales of Depositary Units will occur under
the Prior Agreement or the prospectus supplement filed by the Company in connection therewith. Prior to the termination, the Company
had sold an aggregate of approximately $155.6 million of Depositary Units through the Agent pursuant to the Prior Agreement.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
